Reinforcements are en route for Jurgen Klinsmann’s national team – and the numbers are somewhat surprising as the U.S. manager has called in a foursome to assist in Tuesday’s high-profile qualifier against Mexico.

But it wouldn’t be totally surprising to see Torres in a creative role. He can also help retain possession – really, his specialty, more than playmaking – if Michael Bradley cannot play.

Given the number of players called in, and as U.S. Soccer announced late Saturday night that an MRI will be performed on Bradley’s injured ankle Sunday, we might guess that the important U.S. midfielder’s chances of playing are not great.

You can’t be serious with this comment…jar jar becks over torres? What are you smoking? Jar Jar is punching well above his weight at the international level. If you want to see the midfield collapse even worse than last night then jar jar is your man. We need to win this match not lose it.

I haven’t really been impressed with davis, not really sure what he adds to the team. Spector would’ve been a great call up with his experience in the hex and the fact he is seeing consistent playing time with the brummies. He adds another dimension of attack from the back and on the flanks and can also play a midfield role.

Why did NBCSN interrupt live EPL action to show Obama’s statement on Syria. It wasn’t really breaking news and he didn’t say anything new. NBCSN is supposed to be a sports network, not an extension of NBC. I have already lost confidence in this new ‘sports’ network.
